00:00:04,950 --> 00:00:02,310
standing by for physical separation of

2
00:00:13,509 --> 00:00:04,960
the soyuz tma-18 about to depart the

3
00:00:17,349 --> 00:00:15,270
and now a view from the black and white

00:00:21,269 --> 00:00:17,359
external camera on the soyuz vehicle as

5
00:00:57,110 --> 00:00:21,279
we will watch physical separation

6
00:01:10,469 --> 00:00:59,189
could you prepare the stopwatch

7
00:01:14,630 --> 00:01:13,429
we have separation

8
00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:14,640
stopwatch

9
00:01:20,149 --> 00:01:18,080
confirmed

10

16
00:01:52,389 --> 00:01:50,240
earlier this evening the two crews had

17
00:01:54,550 --> 00:01:52,399
an opportunity to say goodbye to one

18
00:01:57,030 --> 00:01:54,560
another for one last time

19
00:01:58,870 --> 00:01:57,040
they recorded a video of their final

20
00:02:02,149 --> 00:01:58,880
farewells to one another let's take a

21
00:02:06,709 --> 00:02:04,789
as they gathered in the poisk module the

22
00:02:08,469 --> 00:02:06,719
module that is mated to the space

23
00:02:11,029 --> 00:02:08,479
space-facing or zenith side of the

24
00:02:13,430 --> 00:02:11,039

and caldwell dyson made their way inside

31
00:02:30,309 --> 00:02:28,239
the soyuz tma-18 to close the hatches

32
00:02:32,949 --> 00:02:30,319
behind them conducting leak checks to

33
00:02:35,350 --> 00:02:32,959
make sure that we had an airtight seal

34
00:02:36,710 --> 00:02:35,360
between the soyuz and the international

35
00:02:38,630 --> 00:02:36,720
space station

36
00:02:40,470 --> 00:02:38,640
and that then

37
00:02:44,229 --> 00:02:40,480
placed everything in readiness for the

38
00:02:47,030 --> 00:02:44,239
undocking that is coming up about

39
00:02:48,949 --> 00:02:47,040

46
00:03:20,229 --> 00:03:18,149
again this video was recorded

47
00:03:23,270 --> 00:03:20,239

50
00:03:30,550 --> 00:03:28,560

54
00:03:40,149 --> 00:03:38,239
who at the moment of undocking will make

55
00:03:41,910 --> 00:03:40,159
the transition to become the expedition

56
00:03:46,309 --> 00:03:41,920
25 crew

57
00:03:51,350 --> 00:03:48,710

60
00:03:56,630 --> 00:03:54,480
station their launch scheduled in the

61
00:03:58,550 --> 00:03:56,640
pre-dawn hours of october 8 from the

six-person crew once again

66
00:04:09,350 --> 00:04:06,799
that we know we understand that

67
00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,550

between the poisk module and the soyuz

72
00:04:27,430 --> 00:04:23,040
tma-18

73
00:04:34,469 --> 00:04:31,110
and now we're receiving replays

74
00:04:36,870 --> 00:04:34,479
of the landing of the soyuz tma-18 is

75
00:04:54,629 --> 00:04:36,880
taken from one of the helicopters as

76
00:04:59,510 --> 00:04:57,590
as the soyuz descends uh to the

77
00:05:01,670 --> 00:04:59,520
ground you should see the firing of the

78
00:05:02,950 --> 00:05:01,680
soft landing engines very visible here

79
00:05:04,870 --> 00:05:02,960
from

80
00:05:08,710 --> 00:05:04,880
one of the forward surgeon recovery

81
00:05:11,590 --> 00:05:08,720
helicopters that hovered nearby

82
00:05:18,310 --> 00:05:11,600
the final descent path for the soyuz to

83
00:05:26,390 --> 00:05:20,629
and there was the firing of the

84
00:05:33,670 --> 00:05:30,950
soyuz commander alexander schwarzoff

85
00:05:35,350 --> 00:05:33,680
back on earth removed from the soyuz

86
00:05:37,270 --> 00:05:35,360
spacecraft

87
00:05:39,830 --> 00:05:37,280
he was seated in the center seat of the

88
00:06:17,510 --> 00:05:39,840
descent module

89
00:06:23,830 --> 00:06:21,029
being helped down that short platform

90
00:06:26,070 --> 00:06:23,840
he will be placed in a reclining chair

91
00:06:30,950 --> 00:06:26,080
as uh will his uh crewmates mikhail

92
00:06:35,189 --> 00:06:33,110
this an opportunity to

93
00:06:57,990 --> 00:06:35,199
be acclimated to a gravity environment

94
00:07:03,510 --> 00:07:00,469
receiving a pat on the shoulder from

95
00:07:05,830 --> 00:07:03,520
veteran cosmonaut gennady padalka and

96
00:07:07,990 --> 00:07:05,840
the traditional apple a picture's worth

97
00:07:11,749 --> 00:07:08,000
a thousand words quartzoff appears to be

98
00:07:36,550 --> 00:07:15,189
flight engineer tracy caldwell dyson

99
00:07:41,110 --> 00:07:39,270
caldwell dyson exhibiting a big smile as

100
00:07:44,309 --> 00:07:41,120
she's carried to her reclining chair at

101
00:07:46,390 --> 00:07:44,319
the landing site

102
00:07:47,670 --> 00:07:46,400
yes i'm very appreciative of the weather

103
00:07:48,950 --> 00:07:47,680
cooperating a bit better than it did

104
00:07:51,270 --> 00:07:48,960
last time i was out here for jeff

105
00:07:52,629 --> 00:07:51,280
williams landing a lack of snow is not

106
00:07:55,270 --> 00:07:52,639
something you'll hear me complain about

107
00:07:57,990 --> 00:07:55,280
but uh it's you know the this morning it

108
00:07:59,990 --> 00:07:58,000
was probably in the upper 40s lower 50s

109
00:08:02,550 --> 00:08:00,000
the temperature probably i would guess

110
00:08:04,869 --> 00:08:02,560
probably mid 50s right now the breeze

111
00:08:07,510 --> 00:08:04,879
has kicked up a little bit uh there's a

112
00:08:09,110 --> 00:08:07,520
good kind of wind coming at us

113
00:08:10,469 --> 00:08:09,120
but no problem the clouds are beginning

114
00:08:12,869 --> 00:08:10,479
to build a little bit which i don't know

115
00:08:14,629 --> 00:08:12,879
if you can see that on tv or not but it

116
00:08:17,350 --> 00:08:14,639
was clear this morning and mikhail

117
00:08:18,869 --> 00:08:17,360
kornienko uh completing his first flight

118
00:08:21,270 --> 00:08:18,879
into space

119
00:08:22,469 --> 00:08:21,280
clasping his hands and a congratulatory

120
00:08:24,629 --> 00:08:22,479
salute

121
00:08:27,110 --> 00:08:24,639
as he is being helped down the short

122
00:08:29,350 --> 00:08:27,120
work platform ramp uh to be carried over

123
00:08:31,670 --> 00:08:29,360
to his reclining chair

124
00:08:35,029 --> 00:08:31,680
josh uh it looks like uh this has been a

125
00:08:36,550 --> 00:08:35,039
very efficient operation today

126
00:08:38,870 --> 00:08:36,560
it always is you know you've been out

127
00:08:41,430 --> 00:08:38,880
here several times too and it's uh each

128
00:08:43,509 --> 00:08:41,440
and every time it's very impressive

129
00:08:46,389 --> 00:08:43,519
how the russian team members do this so

130
00:08:49,509 --> 00:08:46,399
once everybody gets back to the airport

131
00:08:51,910 --> 00:08:49,519
in karaganda there will be a traditional

132
00:08:53,509 --> 00:08:51,920
ceremony there over there welcomed back

133
00:08:55,430 --> 00:08:53,519
and uh some comments are made by the

134
00:08:56,790 --> 00:08:55,440
crew and uh the media

135
00:08:58,790 --> 00:08:56,800
gets a chance to talk with the crew

136
00:08:59,910 --> 00:08:58,800
members about their landing i'm sure

137
00:09:01,430 --> 00:08:59,920
there will be quite a number of

138
00:09:03,990 --> 00:09:01,440
questions about

139
00:09:06,070 --> 00:09:04,000
yesterday's delayed uh undocking to get

140
00:09:07,269 --> 00:09:06,080
the crew members perspective on that

141
00:09:09,030 --> 00:09:07,279
and then

142
00:09:11,590 --> 00:09:09,040
the two cosmonauts will fly back to

143
00:09:13,190 --> 00:09:11,600
moscow later on tonight and uh

144
00:09:15,590 --> 00:09:13,200
dyson will begin the process of heading

145
00:09:18,870 --> 00:09:15,600
back to uh houston with uh some of the

146
00:09:20,949 --> 00:09:18,880
nasa teams once inside the medical tent

147
00:09:23,190 --> 00:09:20,959
the crew will be helped out of their

148
00:09:25,430 --> 00:09:23,200
social launch and entry suits for

149
00:09:27,110 --> 00:09:25,440
preliminary medical tests

150
00:09:29,750 --> 00:09:27,120
you can see on the far left of your

151
00:09:31,430 --> 00:09:29,760
screen just behind tracy caldwell dyson

152
00:09:33,829 --> 00:09:31,440
that's the chief of the astronaut office

153
